W🤩🤩🤩W! Masterpiece 👏🏾🙌🏾👏🏾

Spring is almost in the air *MIXES*

"Everyone in the band decided to pick a tune each, and then a few of us picked extras. As we are six individual musicians and producers, there's a massively eclectic taste in music - so we wanted to reflect that in the playlist. We hope you enjoy it."

1. I'm Fine - Eric Lau x Rahel 
"This is a straight-up chiller, with beautiful relaxed vocals, and a lazy hazy beat. It's perfect for those late summer nights." Geordan.
2. Time Is The Enemy - Quantic
"I chose this track as it's a regular on my iPod, and reminds me a little of Cut Chemist and Bonobo..." Sam
3. Colour Her Sunshine - Ta-Ku
"I love the groove of the track. Whenever I listen to Ta-Ku, I can't help but bop my head." Matt
4. White Turns To Grey - Bilal
"This is perfectly smooth soul: love the bass…" David
5. Walk On (Feat. Aaron Camper) - Chris Dave And The Drumhedz
"This has amazing emotion, production and composition. It's very clever, the way each section has a push and pull affect, tensing and releasing into the next section." Jacob
6. Heart of Glass (93' Til Infinity Remix) - Blondie x Souls of Mischief
"I chose this as it's a wicked chilled rework of a classic." Roxane
7. Song for Her (Audiojack's Dub For Rah) - Chris James (Feat. Ria Moran)
"I had this on repeat for about a month, and the vocalist is a good friend of mine: her breathy vocals just sit perfectly on top of the skittering rhythms and ambient chords." Geordan
8. Departed - William Arcane
"I really like William Arcane's voice, and this is a really simple track that just sounds good." Matt
9. The Recipe - Kendrick Lamar (Feat. Dr Dre)
"This is one of my favourite tracks produced by Dre. A real head-nodder." Roxane
10. Changes (James Blake Harmonix Remix) - Mala
"The original of this track is wicked, but James just adds those extra elements to make it a banger." Sam
11. I Am Sold - James Blake
"I chose 'I am Sold' because I love the emotion in his voice in this song, and secondly I find the tension in the music very moving. " Jacob

Valentines Slowjams Chapter 8

This mix took awhile to birth!  

2015 has been quite the intense ride so far, and winter has taken many of us quite deep, so this mix tells a story of that journey for me:  of change, balance, healing, and little glimpses of revolution, inside of me and outside of me...right now it's the end of the end, and the beginning(seasonally & symbolically):  
the end of winter is approaching, and all this new life remains just under the surface, waiting to be throttled into life...

I am launching my new website/portal to my work with music, magical gatherings, rituals, healing and more...It feels like a brand new chapter in so many ways (www.messy-magic.com)... more of my passions/visions/dreams certainly want to be throttled into the light...enjoy this deep musical journey from the darkness into the light...

soul music saves lives, yo!

mucho love
Praise Music!

Jazz & Milk turns TEN! To celebrate a decade full of music the Munich based label offers a limited vinyl 12" edition which comes in a hand-drawn and numbered sleeve - 300 copies available only! Since 2005 Jazz & Milk offers an experimental playground for international artists. On Ten Years of Jazz & Milk four exclusive tracks are brought to you by the likes of Sam Irl, Mieux, Todd Simon & The Angel City All Star Brass Band and label founder Dusty.

On the A-side label artist Sam Irl brings Dub culture onto electronic dance floors. Dreams is a forward driven introspective dub track built around a heavy steppas-influenced rhythm and deep bassline. Expect his full-length solo debut album to released later this year on Jazz & Milk!

Mieux is a young upcoming duo from Vienna known from their Boiler Room live performance or their debut EP on Up My Alley! With Technotrap they contribute a playful and dreamy uptempo tune that cleverly balances a straight-forward driven beat with harmonic and repetitive melodic figures.

Label head Dusty joins the EP with a slow-house MPC jam called Heavy Lights. After a dreamy intro the track soon fades into a hypnotic direction based on percussive vibes, big bottom samples and heavy hitting snares.

Todd Simon's arrangement, blending multiple versions of a classic for his 21-piece ensemble featuring himself on Flügelhorn and Alan Lightner on Steel Drums. Recorded live to tape in an 80 year-old studio located in the heart of Hollywood.

Thanks to each and everyone for supporting Jazz & Milk and vinyl music culture throughout the years!

Ten Years of Jazz & Milk

Mas Que Nada

TODD SIMON & THE ANGEL CITY ALL STAR BRASS BAND - MAS QUE NADA

Reissue of ultra rare 7" from cult Orchestre Rail Band with:
- ”Moko Diolo" on side A, a beautiful long trippy deep afro jazz with very funky rhythms sections, great garage sounding guitar and fantastic hypnotic voices!
- “Tama Diyara Mali Deun La" on B side is a massive funky afro track with killer sax solo. For sure a real crowd shaker with killer breaks. 

----------------------------------------------------------

Along with the Bembeya Jazz or Orchestra Baobab, the Rail Band of Bamako is one of the most prolific bands in all of West Africa. This legendary orchestra has launched, among others, the careers of Salif Keita, Mory Kanté and Djélimady Tounkara and has bequeathed in just fifteen years one of the most important work in Malian and West African music.

Encouraged by his superiors at the Ministry of Transport, the station master Aly Diallo, remarkable multi-instrumentalist is charged with developing a modern and eclectic band to animate the Buffet of the station.
Named the Orchestre Rail Band du Buffet Hôtel de la gare de Bamako, the orchestra is officially created in October 1969 under the leadership of conductor, saxophonist and trumpeter Tidiani Koné, an outstanding and unsung musician who was both a griot and a jazzman. Nicknamed the “Malian Miles Davis”, Tidiani Koné embodies by itself the wonderful modernity and adaptability of Malian music. His idea was to bring Malian music out of what he felt was the dead-end cycle of Afro-Cuban and European imitations. He also was the first to understand that Salif Keita’s voice was pure gold and did not miss the chance to recruit the young albino singer.

The Rail Band was established to « explore and propel the Mandingo repertoire in order to aim at the neo-classicism of the African chanson ». In combining Mandingo and Bambara folklore, Congolese rumba, and American Rhythm’n’Blues with French Pop and hints of Calypso, the orchestra’s sound became the soundtrack of a golden decade in Mali’s music from 1970 to the early 1980s and paved the way for numerous West African orchestras to follow.
